Atlanta, GA, August 9, 2013—The need to organize, visualize, analyze and share Geospatial data is growing at an ever increasing rate, but the cost of deploying desktop, server, mobile and web GIS solutions has been a prohibiting factor for many. Esri's cloud-based mapping solution, ArcGIS Online provides a cost effective and robust platform for sharing geospatial data with users both inside and outside of your organization.

“ArcGIS Online represents a big step into the future for the use of GIS. Being able to share maps, data, tools and more via the Cloud is a powerful means of delivery. Now anyone with a web connection can access critical information at any time on almost any device, whether it is a smart phone, tablet, laptop or desktop computer.” says Tripp Corbin, CEO of eGIS Associates.

The new entitlement mentioned above provides those with ArcGIS for Desktop licenses on current maintenance with a number of named users plus 100 ArcGIS Online Credits equal to the total number of ArcGIS for Desktop licenses.
